Apart from the file mode already mentioned, don't forget that Windows based git uses CRLF as line endings where Cygwin git uses LF as default line ending (like a Linux based git). Could lead to "modified" files as well. I avoid mixed the two as much as possible. I use Cygwin git to do all the real operations and use TortoiseGit (together with Windows based git) just to see in the Windows Explorer what is happening in my directories. There is a tweak introduced in the most recent TortoiseGit to use Cygwin git, but have tried that yet.
